Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Industries Ltd may be one of the biggest producers of natural gas in the country, but its power foray is likely to be coal or renewable energy based. The company is planning to not only bid for ultra mega power projects but also go in for acquisition of the power plants, said industry sources.
The government has so far awarded four UMPPs to successful developers. One such project is being developed by Tata Power at Mundra in Gujarat while three others -- Sasan in Madhya Pradesh, Krishnapatnam in Andhra Pradesh and Tilaiya in Jharkhand have been bagged by Reliance Power.
If required, the power ministry would challenge the Jairam Ramesh-led Environment Ministry, sources in the know said.
